Good idea. Also popularity will give a guide as to where the most

must also be the most reliable and best integrated.

This idea is great, bus misses one more information: How often is the
backage
being used, or, more simply, has it been used at all, or was it
installed just
as a part of a pattern, or a newbie installed simply everything just
in case
it will be needed?

Then use the accounting in Linux to track which apps the user is running
and use cron to feed that info automatically to a server.

Hi,

As you probably know, we were talking about this during or
"BrainStorming Prague" and a solution has been proposed: use popcon (or
something similar)

http://tinyurl.com/suse-popcon
https://features.opensuse.org/305877

Popco(r)n should solve more than just only "installed packages" but also
"how often are these packages/application" used (and more).

Bye
L.
